Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Bossingham
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Does someone need to be in?
